Something like this has never happened and there is a reason for that. It doesn’t.
There have been maybe 1 or 2 in 50 years where OC got 12+ and this area 1-3.

Finished shoveling and it’s tricky because the slight slush film leftover refreezes in all shady spots. Unless it dries out by dark there will be some tricky and disguised icy spots.
